Great Crested Grebes etc

A look at the sea today produced the first Great Crested Grebes of the year, with a loose flock of 4 offshore which was a fairly unusual sight along this end of the coast. A visit to West Runton produced a single Knot on the beach as well as the usual Turnstones, Redshank and Grey Plover.
 
A walk around Felbrigg Park produced Siskin, a drake Wigeon asleep on the iced up lake, and a Barn Owl hunting the water meadows flushing up the occasional Snipe as it went.
